Lesson 5: Kemetic Origins of Greek Philosophy, Mythology, and Western Religion
Part 1
The Pyramid Text is the oldest body of written work designed to be spiritual
instructions for humanity. Before Abrahamic religions were introduced to the world
there were 6 main spiritual traditions. The Abrahamic religions consist of
Judaism, Muslim, and Christianity. Ism simply means the religion of a particular
doctrine. For example, Hinduism is a term to describe religions in India.
Judaism begins around 1000 b.c. and unlike popular thought, Judaism is
not a people but rather a religion. Another misconception is the understanding of
the word, description, or title of Hebrew, which simply means nomads. The people
we now label as Jewish and are associated with being Hebrew, first emerged and
were found roaming the land of Canaan. It is interesting to mention that although
there is no record of Ancient Egypt sacrificing animals, the Jewish sacrifice of
the bull is seen.
Next is Islam. It’s important to note that Allah already existed in pre-Islamic
times in Arab nations and Muslims were originally Egyptians. The religion of Islam
from its conception has traditionally not been peaceful but rather indulgent in
egoism. The egoism of all the Abrahamic religions, cultures, and people has been
the seed that grew into racism and elitism.
The year 0 begins Christianity. There were no writings on Jesus in Christianity
till 60, 70 years after Jesus supposedly lived. The story of Jesus’s youth was
added to the Bible to explain Jesus’s existence and how he became to be. Judaism
and Christianity is rooted in ancient Egyptian philosophy and the ancestry of
Ethiopia.
